Dear Rising PGY1 (installment #3)

ATTITUDE trumps aptitude.
We can teach skills, we can't teach character

Be hungry, be humble, prepare, put in effort, seek feedback, value everyone, be curious, be teachable, provide a service

Develop your internal standard!

No, it is not easier for us as URMs to get into programs. We are not here to fill diversity slots. We worked our way here same as everyone else.

Anybody here has a WeChat account? 😅 i'm kind of stuck trying to verifying my account and need a WeChat user to verify it

[Omar Font-Torres, MD @omarfont24]

Not going to lie... being unmatched sucks! But every setback is an opportunity for growth and improvement. I’m not even close to giving up and looking foward for what the SOAP has in store for all of us. Much love to all 🙏🏻 #Match2021

If you are an attending, don’t forget you were once a resident. If you are a resident, don’t forget you were once a medical student. If you are medical student, don’t forget you were once a premed.

Today I got my COVID-19 vaccine! There is some light at the end of the tunnel. Protect yourself, your family and your community 🦠💉 #Blessed

[Jocelyn J. Fitzgerald MD @jjfitzgeraldMD]

Since we are on the topic of vaccines these days, this is as good as of a time as any to remind everyone that Gardasil (the HPV vaccine) is approved for MEN and WOMEN up to the age of 45 and is useful even if you already have HPV because it is for NINE strains! 🥳
